Transitioning to Adulthood

What's in this issue?

All children grow up – no matter what abilities or diagnosis they may have. We know this causes anxiety for autism parents and many worry about what the future will hold. While some ASD children become self-sufficient adults, others will always require a level of support, but there is hope for everyone. That’s why our December issue focuses on ‘Transitioning to Adulthood’.  Make sure you read on to learn about preparing your child for independent living and take a look at our regular mix of advice columns, too. Wishing our readers a very Happy Holidays.
